11st 3lb |
Wins over Stratford's extended 2m2f last summer included one 0-130 handicap (good) off tonight's mark; obvious claims on that form, but only really laboured efforts since, including two this year. |

Scored twice at Stratford last summer; however, soundly beaten in last two appearances and doesn't look the percentage call. |

Improving sort beat Rocheval over 2m6f at Kelso last time; ground-versatile and should go well if coping with this shorter trip (has won at 2m); yard has done well at this meeting over the years. |

Dropped 26lb in the weights in six runs for new stable since February; perhaps the addition of blinkers will help but she's not a solid option in her current form. |

Sole win came for Richard Hughes in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f; 11-8 favourite) in July 2023; hasn't offered much in five starts - over a range of distances (1m-1m4f) - for this yard; competes from an easing mark. |

Novice winner here (9.5f) for Richard Hughes in the summer of 2023, but has shown little since returning for this yard in February; the outside stall won't help his cause either. |

Went close in the last of his three Irish points; 0-7 under rules but he's been placed a couple of times including in a maiden hurdle (2m, good) in May; returns after 128 days off but yard is in good form and he needs watching in market on handicap/chase debut. |

Placed on stable/hurdle debut at Stratford (2m, good) in May but that form isn't anything to get too excited about, and he was disappointing when well-held fourth over 2m2f there last time; tongue-tie refitted. |

Not beaten far when eighth of 11 on hurdling debut here (2m, good) in May but well adrift in his other two qualifying races (2m2f/2m); up in trip for handicap debut; improvement required. |

Close third on handicap debut at Stratford (2m, good) for Richard Phillips in June; below that form over 2m there the following month but remains lightly raced and it will be interesting to see what Nigel Twiston-Davies can do with him. |

11-race maiden (Flat/hurdles) and she's struggled at massive prices in her six hurdle races; long way out of the weights again and can only be watched back in trip. |
